""Have you ever had to put on a brave face to save others from how you really feel? Unfortunately, I've had to too many times.""

The author wrote this book of poems as she experienced cancer in her early 20s. She shares the truth of experiencing a Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma diagnosis: the good, the bad, and the can-you-believe-it's-a-happy-ending! Her unexpected journey included:

a burst appendix

an appendectomy the cancer diagnosis

fertility treatments / surgery chemotherapy lots of headaches lots of learning

lots of love

freedom

What she learned from it all:

Your strength comes from the storms you walk through in life. No rain, no flowers.

Christina wrote this book of poems after she had experienced the ugly truth of her non-Hodgkins lymphoma diagnosis. Cancer is a storm no one should have to fight.
